THE BLUE RACER
It Im About the FlectcHt Thing In the
Hcptllc Family
The swiftest snake I have ever
known Is the blue racer as we used to
call the reptile In the Arkansas foot
hills and I want to tell you this par
ticular snake can travel like a blue
streak said a man from Arkansas
The fact is the name blue racer was
given to the snake because of the rep
tiles llectness I have seen blue racers
dart across the road at sucli a rapid
pace that you could only see a mere
suggestion of blue and if you did not
happen to know the snake and its hab
its you would not know what it was
You could not possibly get the idea
that it was a snake you had seen flash
through the dust of the country road
unless you knew something of the blue
racer Just what speed the snake
makes I do not know but it is a rapid
pace The rattlesnake is supposed to
have good speed and as a matter of
fact the rattler can whiz along at a
pretty swift gait but the rattlesnake
is not In it with the blue racer It
would be interesting to know just how
fast different snakes travel and if we
knew I dare say we would find that the
blue racer is about the fleetest tiling In
the reptile family New Orleans

ANTIQUITY OF SILK
The Product WttH Worth ltn Weight
In Gold For Centuries
The Chinese empress 2G50
B C was supposed to be the first wo
man to dress herself in silken raiment
though silk was used in the arts nearly
1000 years before her reign She was
placed among the Chinese divinities un
der the title of Sien Thsan which
means first promoter of the silk in
dustry
Silk was worth its weight in gold in
many parts of the world for centuries
Its immense cost may be estimated by
the fact that a silken garment is men
tioned as one of the wanton prodigali
ties of the Emperor Heliogabalus while
a gown of the same material was re
fused by Aurelius to his empress on the
ground that he couldnt afford the price
Such was the importance of the silk
Industry in China that the people in the
principal growing and manufacturing
district took the name of Seres and
their country Serica from the word
Se which in the ancient writings
means silk A curious thing about
silk is this The raw material is pro
duced by the cheapest iabor In the
world while the finished product is
among the most costy of merchandise
VENETIAN WOMEN
They Have To Need to Bother Their
Heads About Fashions
The women of Venice are absolutely
free from the rule which Dame Fash

With them the length of the skirt re
mains always the same neither short
nor long and they alwajs wear
plainly made dark dresses black stock
ings and the heelless slippers of the
east Hats are unknown
The universal outdoor wrap for all
ages and all sizes is the black shawl
with a deep silken fringe It is folded
with a short point above and a long
one below and sometimes It envelopes
the figure from head to foot It Is nev
er fastened at the throat and when it
slips off It Is gathered up with one
outstretched arm which makes the
spectator think of a bfs bird stretch
ing its wing
In their attire the women of Venice
are independent only wearing local
clothing but with feminine inconsist
ency they are thoroughly up to date
In the matter of hairdressing the style
of their coiffures changing from time
to time according to the vogue of the
moment in London and Paris

SCIENCE OF LIVING
An Ounce ol Oo d Cheer Im Worth u
Pound of Melancholy
It has been said that If Is better to
be born lucky than rich said Dr
George F Butler but It is In fact bet
ter to be born tough than either lucky
or rich After forty eat less and elimi
nate more Drink more pure water cnl
keep the peristaltic wave of prosperity
constantly moving down the alimenta
ry canal Many people suffer from too
much business and not enough health
When such is the case they had better
cut out business and society for a time
and come down to mush and milk and
first principles Dent be foolish Eat
less and play more Indulge in less fret
and fume and more fruit and fun
There are people too indolent to be
health literally too lazy to live Work
your brains and keep in touch with
people Do something for others and
forget yourselves There is nothing so
inane and detrimental to mind and
health as the conversation of people on
their aches and pains and troubles
The froth of whipped eggs is a tonic
compared to it All our appetites are
conditional Enjoyment depends upon
the scarcity A worker in any field
whose age is near either the shady or
sunny side of fifty should consider him
self in his prime good for another halt
century of temperate judicious work
Let grandma wear bright ribbons and
gaudy gowns if the colors become her

DON QUIXOTE
The Philosophy of Sancho Fjinzn and
the Fame of Cervantes
The enormous number of proverbial
sayings In Quixote had much to do
with the success of the book especially
in England and France at a time when
the apothegm and maxim were a favor
ite literary form and quite apart from
the inexhaustible fund of humorous ac
tion contained in the work Sanchos
sententious dicta made the noval as a
collection of proverbs alone worth pres
ervation
As in the case of so many of Shake
speares apothegms hundreds of Sancho
Panzas saying have become so much a
part of our common speech as to sound
almost trite when we stumble across
them on the printed page Diligence
is the mother of success seems obvious
enough but the man who first enshrin
ed it in speech was a genius ne
whom God helps is better off than the
man who gets up early is a bit of
worldly experience that conies home
even now to many a doubter as to
whether we get our deserts while
Cromwells Trust God and keep your
powder dry was anticipated by San
chos Pray to God but hammer
away Another shrewd piece of ob
servation from the same source might
save many a tradesman from loss to
this day He who does not mean to
pay does not haggle about price and
the homely scrap of philosophy in
which Sancho warns the world against
stretching out the leg farther than the
sheet that covers it is as necessary and
pertinent now as it ever was London

TRIBUTE TO A CHINAMAN
Irri
iKon Ore Regret the Di
6
of Honest Gins Yicfc
epnrturc
A fine gold watch was presented to
Giug Yick a few days ago oil his de-
parture for home In the Flowery King
dom says the Irrigon Ore Irrigator
It was presented by the people of Irri
gon in token of the high esteem in
which Ging is held and bore this in
scription To Ging Yick from his Ore
gon friends Aug0 1003
Ging Yick has left us and gone to
China tho land of his birth where a
loving wife and family yearn for his
coming He has not seen them for over
eight years and there is among them
one son now almost eight years old
whom he has never seen
Ging has been In the employ almost
constantly for seventeen years of some
member of the present Oregon Land
and Water company and for nearly
three years he has been at this place
cooking in camp in cook house and
finally in the hotel He and Mr Hol
brook were the pioneers of Stokes now
Irrigon
There are people who do not like our
almond eyed Celestial friends They
call them chinks and think them an
Inferior race unfit to deal or associate
with To all such we would point to
our friend Ging He was a cook He
never posed for more than he was but
there is not a person in the state of
Oregon who did his duty better more
honorably and honestly or in a pleas
anter gentler way than did Ging
The editor of the Irrigator is not a
worshiper of the yellow man He be
lieves that for many reasons they will
never can never assimilate with the
great English speaking family But we
do believe in giving yellow men brown
or black men credit full credit when
they perform their duty exceptionally
well
And Ging did more than this He did
it always cheerfully always promptly
and he had the intuition to do the right
thing at the right time And over and
above and beyond this he was honest
clear down to his toes not because he
was watched or because he feared de
tection but because it was his nature
to be honest and loyal and true
He goes to China never to return He
cannot come back owing to the laws of
our country but he doe3 not care much
for he has been frugal and saving and
ranks as a rich man at home But we
often wish that there was some elas
ticity to the exclusion act some clause
that would allow such men as Ging to
go and come at will for we who know
him best know him to be a man who
would only honor our country by re
turning
ROOF GARDEN FOR LONDON
Formerly a Private Garden of the
Duke of Westminster
The first of Londons public roof gar
dens Avill be opened in a few weeks
at an electric supply companys new
transforming station in Duke street
Grosvenor square Westminster says
the London Express It will be laid
out in the Italian style and it opens up
possibilities in the utilization of many
wasted spaces on the top of London
buildings If it proves a success the
metropolis may soon be graced with
many similar attractions
The site of the building was formerly
a private garden belonging to the Duke
of Westminster but the corporation
obtained permission to build upon it on
condition that they made and under
took to maintain a roof garden which
should always be kept open to the pub
lic between sunrise and sunset
The architect has so arranged the
building that the roof garden is only
eight feet above the pavement This
was done by the Ingeniously simple
method of putting the greater part of
the engine room underground The
garden is entered by flights of steps on
either side of two magnificent pavil
ions placed at each end and is bordered
by a handsome stone railing The
whole structure Is built of Portland
stone and the actual extent of the
open space available for the public will
be about 250 by GO feet
Among the attractions of the garden
will be an ornamental fountain while
flower beds will be kept gay with color
from early spring to autumn with
trees growing in tubs to complete the
picture Seats of course will be pro
vided and Westminsters garden In
the air promises to be one of the most
restful and picturesque spots in Lon

Dinners With Ilnrry Up Costumes
No indeed the love for dressing up
has not worn itself out in Newport
says the New York Press Though fan
cy dress dances naturally are not as
much in vogue as in winter fancy
dress dinners are proving a delight for
juan The idea had birth in rainy day
boredom in English country houses
where guests were requested to come
to dinner in costume The shorter time
given the greater the fun as much in
genuity has to be used to make up a
dress from materials Immediately at
hand An unwritten law of the game
is that there must be no consultations
with costumers and no unfair advan
tage taken of the resources of town
It is astounding what original and
amusing makeups can be devised
when time presses and dinner waits
nnd the diners derive far more amuse
ment from a dinner of this kind where
ones looks depend on ones ingenuity
than from one entailing greater outlay
